Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the following questions.
Long before they can actually speak, babies pay special attention to the speech they hear around them.
Within the first month of their lives, babies' responses to the sound of the human voice will be different from
their responses to other sorts of auditory stimuli. They will stop crying when they hear a person talking, but not
if they hear a bell or the sound of a rattle. At first, the sounds that an infant notices might be only those words
that receive the heaviest emphasis and that often occur at the ends of utterances. By the time they are six or
seven weeks old, babies can detect the difference between syllables pronounced with rising and falling
inflections. Very soon, these differences in adult stress and intonation can influence babies' emotional states and
behavior. Long before they develop actual language comprehension, babies can sense when an adult is playful
or angry, attempting to initiate or terminate new behavior, and so on, merely on the basis of cues such as the
rate, volume, and melody of adult speech.
Adults make it as easy as they can for babies to pick up a language by exaggerating such cues. One
researcher observed babies and their mothers in six diverse cultures and found that, in all six languages, the
mothers used simplified syntax, short utterances and nonsense sounds, and transformed certain sounds into baby
talk. Other investigators have noted that when mothers talk to babies who are only a few months old, they
exaggerate the pitch, loudness, and intensity of their words. They also exaggerate their facial expressions, hold
vowels longer, and emphasize certain words.
More significant for language development than their response to general intonation is observation that
tiny babies can make relatively fine distinctions between speech sounds. In other words, babies enter the world
with the ability to make precisely those perceptual discriminations that are necessary if they are to acquire aural
language.
Babies obviously derive pleasure from sound input, too: even as young as nine months they will listen to songs
or stories, although the words themselves are beyond their understanding. For babies, language is a sensorymotor delight rather than the route to prosaic meaning that it often is for adults.
Question 52: Which of the following can be inferred about the findings described in paragraph 2?
A. Babies ignore facial expressions in comprehending aural language.
B. Mothers from different cultures speak to their babies in similar ways.
C. Babies who are exposed to more than one language can speak earlier than babies exposed to a single
language.
D. The mothers observed by the researchers were consciously teaching their babies to speak.
Question 53: According to the author, why do babies listen to songs and stories, even though they cannot
understand them?
A. They can remember them easily.
C. They enjoy the sound.
Question 54: The passage mentions all of the followings as the ways adults modify their speech when talking
to babies EXCEPT ______________.
A. speaking with shorter sentences
B. surrounding
C. stimulating
D. divided
B. mothers
C. investigators
D. babies
Question 57: Why does the author mention "a bell and a rattle"?
A. To contrast the reactions of babies to human and nonhuman sounds
B. To give examples of typical toys that babies do not like
C. To explain how babies distinguish between different nonhuman sounds
D. To give examples of sounds that will cause a baby to cry
Question 58: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The differences between a baby's and an adult's ability to comprehend language
B. How babies perceive and respond to the human voice in their earliest stages of language development
C. The response of babies to sounds other than the human voice
D. How babies differentiate between the sound of the human voice and other sounds
Question 59: The word "emphasize" is closest in meaning to ______________.
A. stress
B. leave out
C. explain
D. repeat
Question 60: What point does the author make to illustrate that babies are born with the ability to acquire
language?
A. Babies exaggerate their own sounds and expressions.
B. Babies begin to understand words in songs.
C. Babies notice even minor differences between speech sounds.
D. Babies are more sensitive to sounds than are adults.
Question 61: The word "noted" is closest in meaning to______________.
A. requested
B. observed
C. theorized
D. disagreed

without calculation. Secondly, family creates our developing environment. It gives us habits, ways of thinking
through which we shape our characteristics. The reacting and tolerating manner of other members affect us
toughly, resulting in our personalities. In sum, family is a source of encouragement and personality for us.
